Good Afternoon everyone, auctioneer trying to do their best making sure we're only selling the genuine article here. I couldn't get into the back while I was looking at the watch but overall I think this one seems ok. Anyone have any thoughts on if it is/isn't?
Many thanks

The Colour of the seconds Hand and the otherones dont match. And a picture of the movement would be nice. But i think it should look great after a clean and a new crystal.

That has lived a hard life, without a movement pic you are taking a chance.

In answer to your question, it’s genuine.

In this case it is PROBABLY genuine, though as Jan mentioned, it might have a replacement seconds hand or hands.

That said, does it MATTER that it is genuine? Unless you are getting a superb price, that is in some rough shape and needs a few hundred bucks of restoration to the case.

They’re selling, not buying. Just want to make sure what they’re selling isn’t fake.

Ah woops! Poor reading comprehension is pretty common in my generation, so I'm blaming that 😀

Thank you everyone, your input and responses are very helpful. I will remove the back if it comes in for sale to confirm the movement but when I was with the client I just couldn't get it off and didn't have all of my equipment with me. Thanks again
